Along the Sidelines - Jets Edition

Recommended Posts

Another home game, another win. The Panthers are 6-1 this season at home, the only loss at the hands of the Seahawks.

 

That, my friends, is home field advantage.

 

Some folks had the nerve to try compare Geno Smith to Cam Newton, when reality there is no such comparison.

 

The Panthers didn't make it any easier for Geno, of course. This is a game he will want to quickly forget.

Cam on the other hand stood in the face of defensive pressure and continued to deliver.

Steve Smith had an interesting moment on a botched offensive procedural penalty. He refused to let the refs go until they discussed the play. There is no doubt that if it wasn't for Steve, the wrongful penalty would have stood. We are lucky he is so bull headed.

Deangelo had one of his better games this season, grinding out yards on the ground and providing a huge spark on a screen play turned TD. I don't recall that ever working for the Panthers in the past.

The Brandon Lafell pendulum swung once again to the positive side. Lets hope it pauses there for a while...

Ted Ginn showed some impressive balance and footwork on a key completion that moved the chains for the Panthers. You just can't help but get the feeling Ginn could break out for a TD on any touch.

After halftime Cam spent some time with QB Coach Ken Dorsey. Cam had left the game with a stubbed toe. Dorsey appeared to be verifying that Cam was indeed 100% and ready to get back in.

Charles Johnson managed to play despite lingering effects from a stomach virus. Winters was running his mouth for most of the game and was lucky that the Panthers restrained Johnson from giving him the business.

The turning point in the game was the Jason Williams blocked punt. Williams saw an opportunity and mentioned it to the special teams staff who let him take advantage. Give credit to Williams, this is why the Panthers brought him back. Veteran move.

On Sheldon Richardson's first rushing attempt at the goal line, it was none other than Luke Kuechly that stood him up. Talk about a run stuffing middle linebacker.

Everyone, including the players, were watching the big screens in the stadium as they played Saints - Rams updates...

Mike Tolbert is a machine. A heavy machine, but a machine none the less. He practically bulldozed multiple Jets defenders to come within an inch of the goal line....

and finished them off with a scamper up the middle, demoralizing them in the process.

All in all, it was another great day to be a Panthers fan at Bank of America Stadium.

 

Sorry Jets fans.... maybe next year...

    • I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?
    • LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.  
    • After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
